the interesting idea... the start of this project... the conversations to come

I'm a member of Post Crossing, the internet site for postcard exchange. I sent a card to another Post Crosser, Ilona from Germany. She asked that people tell her which magical power they would like to have. Her question really made me think!

In turn, I thought it would be an interesting project to ask people to pose Thought-Provoking Questions. I would do my best to answer with my opinion, and I would encourage others to add theirs.

And, so was born this blog! I hope that it will be the home for many interesting conversations in the year ahead!

The old bucket list question

DragonflyXO in Tucson asks:

What are the three things you want to do before you die?

Ah, well... I'm trying to do them daily: live a life well-loved and filled with friends who matter. No jumping out of a perfectly good airplane or anything like that...

Might like to see Australia, I suppose, or Alaska...

A young friend of mine, some years ago, listed his three things and now I don't even remember what they were. I whispered in his ear, "Don't forget the "making whoopie" thing. I think you'll like it." The astonishment on his face still makes me chuckle to this day.
